Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Cut out the pattern of the chicken, trace around the pattern on the tile.
  3. Brush the chicken with two coats of SC-6 Sunkissed, wet the area of the chicken, press on the paper pattern, make sure the edges are secure.
  4. Brush the upper ¾ of the tile with 2 coats of SC-91 Seabreeze, and the remainder of the tile with SC-98 Slime Time use RB-144 Soft Fan.
  5. Place the netting fabric over the third coat of Seabreeze and Slime Time while the glaze is still wet. After it has begun to dry, press with a paper towel to remove the excess glaze to speed drying time. Brush over with one coat of SG-202 White Cobblestone, remove the netting when the gloss leaves the glaze.
  6. Cut a toilet paper tube in half lengthwise, then cut it in slats so that a couple of narrow slats will fit in the body of the chicken.
